When
"attacks" against Islam are examined rationally,
it comes out ON EACH ISSUE
that Islam should be the accusing party indeed,not the other way around."Of all the world's great men, none
has been so much maligned* as Muhammad."W. Montgomery Watt,
Muhammad at Medina, Oxford University Press, 1956.* ma-lign: v.t. to speak harmful untruths about... (R. H. Webster's).

False claims and attacks against early marriage in
Islam are addressed, such as:
1) Islam's age of consent was low in history
2) Islam allowed marriage at puberty in pre-modern times, which
caused psychological harm because puberty was too young to give
informed consent (resulting in child sexual abuse and pedophilia)
3) Islam allowed procreation at puberty in pre-modern times, which
was more dangerous to the younger mothers
4) Islam allows marriage at puberty in modern times, which causes
sexual and psychological harm

This presentation (part 2) discusses several lies about
the marriage of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, to Sayyideh
Aisha:
- did the prophet force Abu Bakr to accept the marriage
- were sexual acts performed when Aisha was six
- had Aisha reached puberty when her marriage was consummated
- did Aisha consent to the marriage
- does the Quran and Islam permit consummation to prepubescent girls
- did Prophet Muhammad invent Islam to satisfy his sexual desires
